White Paper: From Carbon Footprint to a Well-Informed Reduction Plan

Guide to Effective and Data-Driven Climate Management in Businesses

Our white paper, "From Carbon Footprint to a Well-Founded Reduction Plan," offers practical guidance on how companies can translate their carbon footprint (CCF) into a structured and economically viable reduction plan. It builds on the joint webinar held on November 12, 2025, with EQS and expands on the approaches presented there, providing decision-makers with clear guidance for effective, data-driven climate management—from setting goals to operational implementation.

Included in the white paper:

• How clear target paths and scenarios are derived from a carbon footprint analysis
• The logic companies need to prioritize climate action
• How the MACC analysis enables a reliable sequence of implementation
• What governance and monitoring mechanisms ensure progress
• What pitfalls, based on experience, tend to slow down climate strategies—and how to avoid them
  

Benefits for businesses:

• A clear roadmap instead of a list of isolated measures
• Well-founded recommendations based on consulting experience and current standards (SBTi, GHG Protocol)
• Focus on impact, feasibility, and economic viability
• Support for integrating climate protection into management and investment processes
